"This is a very dramatic process that is foundational to the development of life, yet exactly how this is accomplished has remained unclear." The study, conducted in Drosophila melanogaster (fruit ...

Overall, the manuscript reveals the role of actin polymerization to drive the fusion of myoblasts during adult muscle regeneration. This pathway regulates fusion in many contexts, but whether it was ...

This study presents a valuable finding regarding the role of Arp2/3 and the actin nucleators N-WASP and WAVE complexes in myoblast fusion. The data presented is convincing, and the work will be of ...

Gelsolin is a calcium (Ca 2+) dependent, pH sensitive actin-binding protein that regulates actin filament dynamics to remodel the actin cytoskeleton. It is known that gelsolin binding induces ...

Buildup of a protein called filamentous actin, or F-actin, in the brain inhibits the removal of cellular wastes, including DNA, lipids, proteins and organelles. The resulting accumulation of waste ...

ABSTRACT: For the first time, for different organic and inorganic compounds possessing the plastic crystalline phase, a new semiempirical equation describing dependence of their fusion enthalpies on ...

Actin is a highly abundant protein that controls the shape and movement of all our cells. Actin achieves this by assembling into filaments, one actin molecule at a time. The proteins of the formin ...

Abstract: Carbon fiber is an innovative strategic material in key fields such as national defense, etc. In recent years, the demand for carbon fiber in the entire international and domestic markets is ...
